Award Winning Motor Journalist Ferdi de Vos gives us his rendition of the 2024 SA Bakkie of the year experience .

With the Competition Scoring Sheets that will be available upon request, here is the oversight from the national Press Release.

GWM HEV raised the Double Cab 4x4 BAR in SA to an all time new height! To win the SA Bakkie of the year in all 3 test categories was just not thinkable before GWM introduced their new P500 HEV to the South African market. "This bakkie has truly set a new standard and we did not believe it could be done", said Gerhard Groenewald, the SA Bakkie of the year Course Director.
